Synchronous motor is a common AC motor, it is the heart of the power system. And it is a component that integrates rotation and static, electromagnetic change and mechanical movement, and realizes the conversion of electrical energy and mechanical energy. The dynamic performance of the synchronous motor is very complicated, and its dynamic performance has a great influence on the full electric system. Synchronous motors operate on excitation current. If there is no excitation, the motor is asynchronous. Excitation is a DC system added to the rotor, and its rotation speed and polarity are consistent with those of the stator.
The current of synchronous motor is ahead of the voltage in phase, that is, the synchronous motor is a capacitive load. In many cases, synchronous motors are used to improve the power factor of the power supply system.
